Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, the newest attraction coming this summer to EPCOT, will contain easter eggs for the former Universe of Energy Pavilion.
Ellen’s Energy Adventure and the rest of the pavilion closed in 2017 to make way for the new Marvel roller coaster.
Imagineer Zach Riddley replied to a comment on his Instagram hinting at the presence of multiple easter eggs. Reportedly, the launch takes us back to The Big Bang. Rumor has it Rocket will say “The Ding Dang” in reference to a quote by Ellen in the former attraction. There will be more beyond this as well.
Cosmic Rewind reuses the building, which will now be known as the Wonders of Xandar pavilion.

It’s nice that the ride will reference the history of the building.
TOTALLY miss The Universe of Energy Ride. Or kids loved it and it was great on a rainy day.
I certainly don’t miss the Ellen/ Bill Nye version, but the original…
Personally, I don’t want any “Stupid Judy” reduxes. I want a big kinetic screen whose rotating panels are high definition and at least 1 dinosaur somewhere. That will never relace the awe I felt when I first saw it waaaay back at the very beginning, nor assuage the sadness I feel that the only way I can relive the ride is through grainy vhs videos posted to YouTube, but at least it would be something honouring the OG ride. To be fair, I’m just glad they even considered doing any kind of throwback, so huzzah to them!
I miss the universe of energy because it was wheelchair accessible, I doubt the new attraction is.
